the_o discouragement_n i_o speak_v of_o it_o be_v a_o base_a dismayment_n of_o spirit_n which_o be_v either_o when_o he_o be_v dismay_v that_o ought_v not_o or_o he_o be_v dismay_v at_o that_o whereat_o he_o ought_v not_o to_o fear_v where_o no_o cause_n of_o fear_n be_v as_o vitello_n his_o man_n think_v his_o master_n have_v get_v skill_n in_o opticke_n he_o ride_v along_o upon_o the_o

the_o courage_n that_o be_v in_o he_o when_o a_o man_n have_v strength_n enough_o to_o grapple_v with_o the_o evil_a before_o he_o but_o through_o dismayment_n of_o spirit_n he_o can_v put_v it_o forth_o have_v not_o i_o command_v thou_o say_v god_n to_o joshua_n be_v strong_a and_o of_o a_o good_a courage_n be_v not_o afraid_a neither_o be_v thou_o dismay_v josh._n 9_o god_n have_v give_v

thou_o have_v strength_n and_o power_n to_o go_v through_o the_o business_n that_o i_o have_v call_v thou_o unto_o yet_o thou_o will_v not_o be_v able_a to_o use_v it_o nor_o to_o put_v it_o forth_o if_o thou_o be_v discourage_v three_o it_o be_v at_o the_o apprehension_n of_o some_o evil_n i_o say_v not_o at_o the_o sight_n of_o some_o evil_n for_o a_o man_n may_v be_v dismay_v at_o the_o

withal_o if_o the_o evil_a before_o he_o be_v inferior_a to_o he_o he_o scorn_v it_o as_o the_o bark_n of_o a_o toothless_a dog_n if_o it_o be_v but_o a_o evil_a equal_a to_o his_o strength_n than_o he_o make_v a_o tush_o at_o it_o because_o he_o know_v or_o think_v himself_o able_a to_o encounter_v with_o it_o but_o if_o it_o be_v a_o evil_a above_o his_o strength_n than_o his_o spirit_n melt_v and_o droop_v before_o he_o see_v this_o in_o saul_n 1_o sam._n 17._o 11._o and_o his_o people_n when_o they_o see_v the_o champion_n of_o the_o philistine_n come_v against_o they_o when_o they_o
